Gen X had - Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone
Millinials have.....?
What male actors do you think fit this bill?
They have none. All the actors nowadays are sissified pansies.
shareThat is the answer I am afraid of.
Has Hollywood completely cucked the millinial generation from the tough guy role?
Who is the role model for manhood for this generation?
I'm having a hard time with a sparkly vegetarian vampire being Batman. He better step up big time or his career is screwed.
sharePattinson has become quite a good actor, way over the average in modern Hollywood. Check Rover or Good Time.
He's not the classic 'tough guy' style, though. He's more of a method actor, but the same could be said about Christian Bale.
Bale was the first decent movie Batman. The others made my stomach turn.
shareI disagree. Keaton wasn't bad at all. And Adam West was very good too in its campy comedic style.
shareBatman was Never a comedian.
shareThe old 60s series is a campy comedy

No shit.
shareGood question!
So how old is he supposed to be exactly?
The 'tough bald guys' came to my mind first (Vin Diesel and Jason Statham, both 52).
Lately Keanu Reeves and Ryan Reynolds have appeared in roles that you may call a 'tough guy'.
Edit: I guess they're too old
And Liam Neeson, who is almost 70... for some reason every tough male guy in modern movies seems to be old enough to be in a geriatric.
shareIf yesterday's tough guys are the only ones being cast, to me it speaks volumes about today's woke sensitive "men".
shareWell, I think there's good actors nowadays. The problem is that roles for white males are mostly cucks or psychopaths. If you don't fit that profile and you're a white male, you're not getting jobs. Pattinson himself has spent years doing indie movies to get good roles, that's a symptom.
So yeap, I think there's good actors nowadays... if they're white males, though, they probably already looked for a different job to pay the bills.
Uh hunh. That explains all the superhero movies.
shareActually, it does. Next Marvel cycle has only one white guy that doesn't play a kid, a cuck or a psycho. Captain America is now a black guy, Thor is a lesbian chick. Iron Man, if they follow the comics, he will be a black chick. And so on and so for.
And next Batman movie is already blackwashing Gordon. Not to talk about last series, Batwoman, where every white guy is a cuck or a psycho.
Jeffrey Wright is an excellent choice for Gordon. A black actor can play Gordon, no problem.
shareYeap, this constant blackwashing and femwashing is a problem. Of course, only positive characters. Villains and cucks are still white males, figures.
Diversity was a nice experiment, but it just doesn't work. People can't help their biology and they try too hard to overcompensate. It just doesn't work. Better to have no diversity than to have a shithole. So, yeap, it's a problem, the whole diversity thing is a problem, and it's something that needs to be fixed.
It is not the age of the actor that is important it is the actor in the 'formative' years of your generation..(your teen years)..the late 1990s to 2009.
shareThe Rock.
share"Gen X had - Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone"
Why do people always shoehorn that average height, average build, balding guy from that shitty TV show "Moonlighting" in with Schwarzenegger and Stallone?
Schwarzenegger and Stallone were a one-time thing. No one before or since epitomized "action hero" like they did, and I highly doubt anyone else ever will. Also, their beyond-iconic, larger-than-life signature characters (Rambo and the Terminator) were a one-time thing too, and the heavy focus on action movies in general during the '80s (with some bleed over into the '90s) was probably a one-time thing as well.
